A friend of mine made these roulades for a dinner party she invited me to and they were so pretty and delicious! They may be prepared in advance and reheated. Just wrap in foil and place in a preheated 325F oven for about 15 minutes. Serves 6 as a starter and 4 as a main course. From "The Classic Vegetarian Cookbook."

Categories     Spinach

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups spinach leaves, fresh and young
1 tablespoon butter
4 eggs, seperated
nutmeg, freshly grated
salt
black pepper, freshly ground
4 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated for coating
1 large red pepper, quartered
1 cup cream cheese
milk, a little

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200C). Line a 9x13-inch shallow-sided baking sheet with waxed paper to extend slightly up the sides.
  • Place the spinach in a pan with just the water that clings to its leaves after washing. Cook over moderate heat until tender: 7-10 minutes. Drain.
  • Put the spinach, butter, and egg yolks in a blender, and work until smooth. Transfer to a lare bowl, and season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
  • In a separate bowl, shisk the egg whites until they are stiff. Fold the egg whites into the spinach mixture using a metal spoon, then pour the spinach and egg-white mixture into the prepared pan, smoothing it to the edges.
  • Sprinkle 2 tbsp of the Parmesan cheese over the roulade. Bake the roulade until just firm and spongy in the center: 12-15 minutes.
  • Place a piece of waxed paper large enough for the roulade next to the oven, and sprinkle it with the remaining Parmesan. Remove the waxed paper that was used to line the pan from the top.
  • Place the pepper under a hot broiler, shiny side up, until the skin blisters and turns black. Allow to cool. Tear off the papery skin, and remove and discard the stalk and seeds. Cut into strips.
  • Beat the cream cheese with enough milk to make it spreadable, then cover the roulade with it. Arrange the red pepper over the top in widel spaced stripes, then roll up the roulade from one of the short sides.
  • Place the roulade with the seam underneath so it cannot unroll. Trim the ends, and if desired, sprinkle the top with freshly grated Parmesan.

CHEESE AND SPINACH ROULADE



Cheese and Spinach Roulade image

I can't remember where I found this recipe...it was scribbled on a card from long ago. It's very good - perfect for a summer luncheon. A spinach semi-jellyroll is filled with a cheesy herbed luciosness... You can replace the Feta cheese with Parmesan if you like, and the mozzarella can be a pizza or Italian cheese mix.

GOAT CHEESE AND HERB STUFFED CHICKEN ROULADE



Goat Cheese and Herb Stuffed Chicken Roulade image

Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (8-ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, defrosted, and all excess liquid pressed out 8 ounces goat cheese
4 tablespoons toasted and finely chopped marcona almonds
4 tablespoons regular breadcrumbs
1 clove garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme
1 lemon, zested
2 whole chickens (3 1/2 to 4 pounds)
2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the spinach, goat cheese, almonds, breadcrumbs and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • In another bowl, combine the butter, parsley, rosemary, thyme and lemon zest. Set aside.
  • Lay the chicken breast-side down. Slice through the skin along the backbone of the chicken, cutting through the skin. Using your boning knife and fingers, release the skin from the chicken, angling the knife towards the meat of the chicken. Once you have loosened the skin from the back side, turn the chicken over so it is breast-side up and slice down the center of the breast. Using your boning knife and fingers, pull back the skin from each side. Once you get to the legs and wings, cut around each piece to release the skin from the joint. Take your time, this takes practice, and it doesn't have to be perfect, we just want as much skin as possible. Once you have removed the skin from each side of the chicken, set them aside.
  • Remove each breast from the chickens by taking your boning knife and following the breast bone down each side. Use the bones as your natural guide, follow it all the way down to remove the breast.
  • Once the breasts are removed, butterfly each breast by cutting into the thickest part of the breast horizontally, creating a pocket, like opening up a book. Once butterflied, place each breast in between 2 layers of plastic wrap and, using a meat mallet, pound until it is 1/4-inch thick.
  • Lay the chicken breasts flat and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Divide the herbed goat cheese stuffing between the 4 breasts, placing the stuffing mixture towards the bottom third of the breast, closest to its narrowest point. Roll the breast around the stuffing, tucking in the ends as you roll, like you would a burrito.
  • Lay the chicken skins out and divide the herb butter between them, placing the butter just below the center point of the skin. Place the rolled breast directly on top of the butter and then wrap the skin around the chicken, tucking in the ends, repeating the same process you did to roll the breasts. Once rolled, secure the skin with 3 toothpicks, one in the middle and one on each end.
  • Heat the oil in a nonstick, oven-safe saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the roulades and sear on all sides until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the internal temperature is 165 degrees F and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove the toothpicks, slice and serve.

Tips:

  • Prepare the ingredients in advance. This will help you save time and ensure that you have everything you need before you start cooking.
  • Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has a better flavor and texture than frozen spinach.
  • Wilt the spinach properly. Wilting the spinach removes excess moisture and helps to prevent the roulade from becoming soggy.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in the roulade, so it's important to use a cheese that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Roll the roulade tightly. This will help to keep the filling inside the roulade.
  • Bake the roulade until it is golden brown. This will help to ensure that the roulade is cooked through.
  • Let the roulade cool slightly before slicing. This will help to prevent the roulade from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Cheese and spinach roulade is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and effort, you can create a cheese and spinach roulade that will impress your friends and family.
